Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for controlling the feeder system of pump-action shotguns.
  • the breech-block closure system is actuated by means of one or two braces which are parallel to the axis of the barrel and are actuated by a manual pump-action cocking rod.
  • the breech-block By acting on the cocking rod, the breech-block is disengaged from the breech to retract it into the position for opening the firearm; the same movement also actuates the lever (or levers) for retaining the cartridge in the tubular magazine located below the barrel coaxially to the cocking rod.
  • the breech-block during the first step of its return to the closure position, also actuates the rising block, in a conventional manner, to allow to insert the cartridge that has left the magazine into the barrel.
  • the retrograde opening stroke of the breech-block assembly of the firearm is utilized in order to synchronize the movements of the lever (or levers) for retaining the cartridge in the magazine, for the exit of a single cartridge at a time, with the movements of the rising block, on which the cartridge that leaves the magazine arranges itself to be subsequently lifted into a position which is suitable for insertion in the barrel.
  • the aim of the present invention is to obviate the above mentioned drawbacks of conventional pump-action shotguns.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a device for controlling the pump-action mechanism of a firearm which allows to unload the firearm by removing the cartridge in the barrel without making a new cartridge fall onto the rising block from the magazine.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a device which allows to fire a series of shots without using the cartridges in the magazine but by manually inserting the cartridge in the barrel for each shot.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a device which has a simple construction and is reliable in use.
  • a device for controlling the feeder system of pump-action shotguns comprising a breech-block which is operatively associated with a cocking rod which is suitable to move between two stroke limit positions of the breech-block, a closed position and an open position, the rod motion actuating the feeding of a cartridge from a tubular magazine to a rising block when the breech-block reaches the open position and from the rising block into the firing chamber of the barrel when the breech-block returns to the closed position, characterized in that it comprises a limiter for limiting the retrograde stroke of the cocking rod, for the opening of the breech-block, for selectively preventing the breech-block from reaching the open stroke limit position.
  • the device for controlling the feeding system of pump-action shotguns can be applied to a pump-action shotgun of the conventional type, which includes a cocking rod 3 sliding coaxially to a cartridge magazine 5, which is in turn arranged below the barrel 7.
  • the cocking rod 3 actuates one or two braces (not shown) which are associated with the breech-block (not shown in the drawings) in a per se known manner.
  • the control device includes a limiter 9 adapted to slide in a seat 11 which is formed in the cocking rod 3 and runs substantially at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the movement of the cocking rod.
  • the limiter 9 includes a button 19 which can be operated with one finger of the hand that grips the cocking rod 3, on which there are two locking seats 13 and 15 and a locking tooth 17 adapted to cooperate with a fixed abutment 21 which is constituted, for example, by the front plane of the frame.
  • the seats 13 and 15 can be engaged alternately by a pin or pivot 23 which can slide, in contrast with a spring 25, in a seat 27 which is perpendicular to the seat 11. By engaging the seat 13 or 15 respectively, the pin 23 keeps the limiter 9 respectively in a position for the normal operation of the firearm or in a position for limiting the retrograde stroke of the cocking rod 3.
  • the control device includes a means for restoring the normal operating position of the limiter 9.
  • the restoring means is constituted by two contoured blades which are mounted to the tubular magazine 5 in such a position as to interfere with the limiter 9 when the cocking rod 3 is substantially in the position that corresponds to the breech-block closure position.
  • Each blade 29 includes at least one inclined plane 31 adapted to cooperate with an inclined plane 33 formed on the limiter 9.
  • FIG. 1 the cocking rod 3 of the shotgun is shown in the initial position, from which it is made to slide backward (to the right in the drawings) by the user, who holds it with one hand. If the user wishes to operate the device according to the invention, he or she merely has to press the button 19 with one finger of the same hand that holds the cocking rod, at the same time pulling the cocking rod, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the limiter 9 is accordingly set to the stroke limiting position, so that when the limiter 9 reaches the fixed abutment 21 constituted by the front surface of the frame the cocking rod 3 cannot move beyond the preset position and complete its normal stroke.
  • the position of the fixed abutment (front surface of the frame) is such that the stroke of the cocking rod is interrupted before the lever for retaining the cartridge in the magazine is operated. At this point the user is free to perform operations such as unloading the cartridge that is present in the barrel and the insertion of a new cartridge in the firing chamber without having to use the cartridges already contained in the magazine.
  • the limiter 9 When the user returns the cocking rod to the initial position, the limiter 9 returns to its normal operating position by virtue of the action of the restoring means 29, as shown in Figure 4.
  • the inclined plane 33 of the limiter 9 acts in contrast with the inclined plane 31 of the restoring means 29, forcing the limiter 9 to slide outward within its seat (FIGS. 4 and 5).
  • the limiter 9 is stably retained in its normal operating position by virtue of the action of the pin 23 in the seat 15, and if the user does not press the button 19 during the retrograde movement of the cocking rod, the shotgun operates normally, since the cocking rod is free to perform its intended stroke in full, as shown in FIG. 6, since the limiter 9 does not interfere with the fixed abutment 21 constituted by the front surface of the frame.
  • the device for controlling the feeder system cannot be engaged when the firearm is in the closure position (FIG. 1) but can be engaged only when the backwards motion of the cocking rod (FIG. 2) has begun in order to unload the firearm.
  • FIGS. 8-10 illustrate a device for controlling the feeder system of pump-action shotguns generally designated by the reference numeral 101, which can be applied to a conventional-type pump-action shotgun which includes a cocking rod 103 which can slide coaxially on a cartridge magazine 5 which is in turn arranged below the barrel 7.
  • the cocking rod 103 actuates one or two braces which are associated with the breech-block (the braces are not shown in the drawings) in a per se known manner.
  • the control device includes a limiter 109 which is arranged in a seat 111 which is formed in the cocking rod 103.
  • the limiter 109 is constituted by a lever which is pivoted to the cocking rod 103 by means of the pivot 140 and includes a button 119 which can be operated with one finger of the hand that grips the cocking rod 103.
  • the limiter 109 can move in contrast with a spring 125 which is adapted to keep it in a normal operating position and includes a locking member 117 which cooperates with a fixed abutment 121 constituted by the front surface of the frame.
  • FIG. 8 shows the initial position of the cocking rod, from which it is made to slide backwards (to the right in the figures) by the user, who grips it with one hand. If the user wishes to operate the device according to the invention, he merely needs to keep the button 119 pressed with one finger of the same hand that grips the rod while he retracts the rod over its entire stroke.
  • FIG. 9 shows the device in the stroke limiting position, so that when the limiter 109 reaches the fixed abutment 21, constituted by the front surface of the frame, the cocking rod 103 cannot move beyond the preset position and complete its normal stroke.
  • FIG. 10 instead shows the device in the normal operating position, in which the limiter 109 does not interfere with the front surface 21 of the frame when the cocking rod is retracted.
  • FIGS. 11-16 illustrate a device for controlling the feeder system of pump-action shotguns according to a third aspect of the invention, generally designated by the reference numeral 201, which can be applied to a pump-action shotgun of the conventional type which includes a cocking rod 203 which can slide coaxially on a cartridge magazine 5 which is in turn arranged below the barrel 7.
  • the cocking rod 203 actuates one or two braces which are associated with the breech-block (and are not shown in the drawings) in a per se known manner.
  • the control device includes a limiter 209 arranged in a seat 211 formed in the cocking rod 203.
  • the limiter 209 is constituted by a lever which is pivoted to the rod 203 by means of the pivot 240, which is rigidly coupled to the body of the shotgun.
  • the limiter 209 includes a button 219 which can be actuated with one finger of the hand that grips the cocking rod 203, a locking seat 215 and a locking member 217 which is suitable to cooperate with a fixed abutment 221 constituted by the front surface of the frame.
  • the seat 215 can be engaged by a pin or pivot 223 which can slide longitudinally in contrast with a spring 225. By engaging the seat 215, the pin 223 keeps the limiter 209 in the operating position for limiting the retrograde stroke of the cocking rod 203.
  • the control device also includes a means for restoring the normal operating position of the limiter 209.
  • the restoring means is constituted by a rod 229 which can slide longitudinally with respect to the tubular magazine 5 and has a head which is provided with a slot 241 which accommodates the pivot 240.
  • the rod 229 has a front end which is suitable to abut against the tenon of the shotgun when the cocking rod 3 approaches the front position (FIG. 14) in the vicinity of the breech-block closure position (FIG. 15). In this position (FIG. 14), the head of the rod 229 interferes with the limiter 209.
  • the head of the rod 229 in fact includes at least one inclined plane 231 which is suitable to cooperate with an inclined plane 233 which is formed on the limiter 209.
  • FIGS. 11-16 show an operating sequence which is substantially similar to the one shown in the above FIGS. 1-7.
  • FIGS. 17-22 illustrate a device for controlling the feeding system of pump-operated shotguns according to a fourth aspect of the invention, which is generally designated by the reference numeral 301 and can be applied to a conventional-type pump-action shotgun, which includes a cocking rod 303 which can slide coaxially on a cartridge magazine 5 which is in turn arranged below the barrel 7.
  • the cocking rod 303 actuates one or two braces which are associated with the breech-block (and are not shown in the drawings) in a per se known manner.
  • the control device includes a limiter 309 which is arranged in a seat 311 formed in the cocking rod 303.
  • the limiter 309 is constituted by a lever which is pivoted to the rod 303 by means of the pivot 340, which is rigidly coupled to the body of the shotgun.
  • the limiter 309 also includes a button 319 which can be operated with one finger of the hand that grips the cocking rod 303, a locking seat 315 and a locking member 317 which is suitable to cooperate with a fixed abutment 321 constituted by the front surface of the frame.
  • the seat 315 can be engaged by a pivot or pin 323 which can slide longitudinally in contrast with a spring 325. By engaging the seat 315, the pin 323 keeps the limiter 309 in the operating position for limiting the backwards stroke of the cocking rod 303.
  • the control device 301 also includes a means for restoring the normal operating position of the limiter 309.
  • the restoring means is constituted by at least one contoured blade which is fixed to the tubular magazine 5 in such a position as to interfere with the limiter 309 when the cocking rod 303 is substantially in the position that corresponds to the closure position of the breech-block.
  • FIGS. 16-22 show an operating sequence which is substantially similar to the one shown in the preceding FIGS. 1-7.
  • the materials used, as well as the dimensions, may of course be any according to the requirements and the state of the art.
